Such complaints were received from different wards across the city.
Looking for a solution, many of them approached polling officials but in vain.
A GTB Nagar resident and voter of N 14 ward, businessman Pawan Chaudhary, reached the polling booth armed with his voter ID card, but realised that his name was missing from the voters' list.
"My father votes in every election but this time his name and photo were missing. Another man's name and photo were in the voters' list against our residential address," said Chaudhary's daughter Juhi.

Senior media professional Sanjay Kaw experienced a similar problem. "I had voted in the MCD bypoll last year but today when I reached the polling booth at Kondli, I found my name missing from the voters' list. I sought help from officials but they could not do anything," Kaw said.
